AlgoApp - Flashcards

Flashcards for material you need to remember

AlgoApp - Flashcards is a study app for making and reviewing decks of question-and-answer cards. It suits learners working through subjects with plenty of facts to recall, such as language characters or medical material, and can be used for decks you create yourself or ready-made cards you find in the app.

How study sessions work

The app uses spaced repetition to choose cards for review based on your progress. Rather than requiring a fixed study schedule, it lets you study when you choose. Deck and card statistics offer a way to look back at your progress, while a dashboard provides an overview and shortcuts to recently used decks.

Making and using decks

Cards can be created on a phone and formatted with options such as colored text, lists and underlining. The app also supports HTML and CSS for more advanced formatting. You can add photos from your camera, turn decks around to study in the opposite direction, and use text-to-speech or translation features. Japanese learners may find the furigana-generation feature useful when studying kanji.

AlgoApp describes the app as usable on its own, with study available offline. Decks and progress can sync with the web app, desktop and other mobile devices when online. Those who mainly want a simple paper-style review tool may not need its formatting, translation or progress features; learners who want to build and manage larger decks may have more use for them.
